## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### Who is it for

| Use case | Who benefits |
|---|---|
| Competitive analysis | Product and marketing teams tracking rivals' ratings, pricing and positioning |
| Market research | Analysts mapping a software category and its leaders |
| Lead generation | Sales teams building lists of tools and their websites in a niche |
| Content and SEO | Writers and comparison sites sourcing structured product and review data |

### How to use it

1. Add one or more **Search Queries** (categories or keywords such as `CRM`, `project management`, `help desk`). Each item runs its own search.
2. Optionally list **specific products** by slug or URL to scrape them directly.
3. Set **Max Products To Scrape**, keep **Include Ratings & Reviews** on for the full data, and run. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull it through the Apify API.

### Frequently Asked Questions

**Can I scrape a whole software category?**
Yes. Enter the category name as a search query (for example `CRM` or `project management`) and the actor returns the matching products with their ratings, pricing and reviews.

**Do I get the actual review text?**
Yes. For each product the actor captures every user review shown on its page in a `reviews` array, each with title, body text, star rating, date, reviewer name, avatar and the reviewer's role or industry when available. The single latest review is also surfaced in the flat `topReview*` fields for quick spreadsheet use.

**Can I run several categories in one go?**
Yes. The search field is a list, so one run can cover many categories at once. Each record is tagged with the query that produced it.

**How fresh is the data?**
Products, ratings and reviews are read live at run time, so each record reflects the source at the moment of the run (see observedAt).

### Export, API and AI agents (x402 + MCP)

Export the scraped data to **JSON, CSV or Excel**, pull it as a **dataset** through the Apify **API**, or wire it into your app with **no code**. This web scraper and data extractor also works for bulk data extraction and scheduled runs.

For AI agents: this Actor is available on **x402**, Apify's agentic payment standard built with Coinbase. An AI agent can discover, pay for and run it on its own with a funded wallet and a single HTTP request: no account, no subscription, no API key and no human in the loop. It also runs as an **MCP** tool inside Claude, Cursor and other AI clients out of the box. Learn more about [x402 agentic payments on Apify](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/x402).

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQueries` (type: `array`):

Software categories or keywords to search, one search per item (e.g. "CRM", "project management", "help desk"). Each returns matching B2B software products with ratings and reviews.

## `products` (type: `array`):

Optional list of specific product page slugs or URLs to scrape directly (e.g. "zoho-crm" or a full product URL). Use this when you already know the exact products you want.

## `maxProducts` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of products to scrape across the whole run.

## `includeReviews` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch each product's detail page to add star rating, review count and the latest user review (reviewer role, industry, title, text, rating, date). Turn off for a faster products-only run.
